Fountains First!


Have I mentioned that Jeremy loves water? Jeremy loves this great fountain outside of Grandma Jean's home.

Yesterday, we took Jeremy to Fairytale Town, a fancy playground for toddlers here in town complete with castles, moats and three billy goats gruff. After securing our annual family pass guaranteeing us unlimited trips of fun, we ventured into the park. Despite the enthusiastic efforts of Mama and Mommy to direct and redirect Jeremy's attention on the giant Old Lady's Shoe, Sherwood's Forest or the Crooked Mile, he was most fascinated with the fountains and the fences. He located every drinking fountain with his built-in plumbing detector. It didn't matter if they were hidden in the mouths of hippos, the cups of tulips or behind the bunny hutch, he found it. He also personally inspected all of the fences: the rope fences; the chicken mesh; the picket fences; and the hedges. He did like sliding down the rabbit hole, but most of the rest of the "attractions" didn't attract him. Fortunately, since we have an annual pass, there is plenty of time for him to either expand his horizons beyond the fences and fountains. Or not.
